Stemming the Tide of Foreclosures

There's some good news for homeowners who are falling behind on their mortgage payments. Ohio is slated to get more than $170 million from the federal government to help stem the tide of foreclosures. The Ohio Department of Commerce just submitted its proposal to the Treasury Department for how it hopes to spend that money. Kim Zurz, who heads the Commerce Department says much of the money will help lower monthly mortgage payments for borrowers in trouble. She spoke with ideastream®'s Eric Wellman.
